Speaking of that, the recent change in I/O module names from `i/o' to
`io' was probably the consequence of this observation.

However, I find `i/o' better looking and implementations should be able
to deal with slashes quite easily (e.g., by converting slashes to
hyphens or whatever).

I also agree that this should be left for standardization as an SRFI.

Thanks,
Ludovic.
